Will I take up an overseas job, leaving my family behind for a long period of time?
My answer is NO, 2 years is a very long time for me, and I would not want to live away from my family. I can give my real-life example, though not exact but something similar. Hubby got a job overseas 10 years back, at that time I had a very good job at a very senior position, and paying also very well. His opportunity was excellent so it was not something we could ignore. First, we decided that he would travel for the job and I would stay behind back home and continue with mine, because in this place it was not easy for females to get a job. So, if I accompanied him, I would be jobless.
After he left within one month only I decided to quit my job and join him, because staying away from him was not an option that was suiting me very well. A lot of people told me that I was doing a foolish thing, of leaving such a good job at hand and going to a place where I may never get one. I quit my job and moved with him to another Country, I did miss my job for a long time, but it was not as much as I missed living without him.
I am very emotional when it comes to family matters and nothing is more important to me then my family. So, even if I would get such an opportunity and I had to leave them behind for a long duration, I would not take it. If it would be for couple of months then I can think about it, but even a year is out of question.

Negative thought about myself - Not really, I have always been in the space of positive thinking and uplifting myself. That does not mean I never have negative thoughts, but there are no such negative patterns that my mind is stuck on to. Honestly, I love myself very much and I accept myself for whatever I am. There are times when I do negative things but then I do have a quick realization and I work it out on it.

Attitude of Gratitude - It is an important aspect of my life. I believe that one must always show gratitude for every single thing that they have in life. I am grateful for everything on a daily basis in my life, my family, friends, the beautiful home that I have, the life that I am living, all the things that I am enjoying in life, it's all to be grateful about. The most I am grateful to the Universe is bringing the right life partner into my life, because without him possibly the life that I am living would have never been possible. For today and forever I am grateful for this beautiful gift that I have in my life.
